Wow - I absolutely loved Community Tavern. Pretty and cosy dining room, friendly and charming staff and sensational food at excellent prices. I had the mushroom butter dumplings (4 perfect parcels of umami shrooms and thai basil) followed by the vegan Dan Dan noodles (a flavourful and piquant bowl o
Amazing food and amazing service. Short rib dumplings were to die for and the half chicken was exquisite. Shout out to Pete and Karen for amazing service, I’ll be back! I also got the burger to go and I understand why it’s ranked one of the best in Chicago.
Ok so like many others, I wasn’t aware of community tavern until the article about the burger came out. My wife and I decided to make the trip out there to see what the fuss was about. We thought we’d like the burger but honestly, we loved everything else WAYYY more. The food was absolutely amazing.
Followed @eater_chicago to @communitytavern. The menu is Asian inspired. Service was great. We even got clean plates and utensils after every course.
🥟 Kimchi dumplings - the wrapping is perfectly bouncy and firm.
🍝 Prawn Carbonara with Thai Spices - didn't really taste much of the Thai flavors. T
We ordered 4 things: pork ribs 8/10, crispy rice noodles 8/10, butter mushroom dumplings 10/10, and fried chicken 6/10.
The fried chicken was the only thing I wouldn’t order again. It was on the sweeter note, which is not to my liking.
I drove for 40-minutes to get here right at 5 pm when they open the doors. When I got there at 4:55 people were waiting outside to dine in. I was favored with rock-star-parking right in front of their door and free because it was Sunday.
I sat at the Bar order an Old Fashion and food to go - I was
Not sure how friends discovered this place but it's super cute and food was so good! Being Korean myself, I'm always skeptical to try Korean fusion but Community Tavern did it right! Server Peter was attentive and funny in his own sarcastic way. Here what we got:

Bottom line: I would go back here if I were in the neighborhood. Great local spot.
Ended up here as we were at the theater across the street. Saw it on the way in and it looked great. So glad we stopped in.
Really well made cocktails to begin. The dumplings were out of this world delicious: Short
Highly recommend. The food was delicious and the service was very good. Interesting flavors and nice cocktails.
As I dig into the burger, first thing I noticed that bun was one of the best bun on a burger, warm and soft texture, blends in perfectly with all the condiments and burger meat which you can taste the freshness. They use a little bit of fish sauce giving the burger an unique taste you won’t find any
Such a unique neighborhood spot! Food is always delicious with such a warm inviting staff. Great wines, mussels and seasonally changing menu. The gem of Old Irving/Portage Park!
Food was delicious, busy restaurant. Sat at the bar with superior service. Enjoyed a nicely crafted cocktail, papaya salad, squash dumplings, pork ribs, and baked Alaska. 😋 everything was perfection. Would highly recommend.
I feel like we stumbled on a hidden gem that isn't so hidden. I got a Friday reservation a few days in advance with no issues. Shared 6 dishes for 2 to try a good spread and we were both blown away, full, and had a good portion of leftovers. We talked about it for hours afterward. No complaints or e
This is my new favorite Chicago spot. Amazing all around, the food was incredible, service was the best and the atmosphere is so cozy and beautiful. Zach was our server and he was so polite and helpful with ideas on the menu. We had a late reservation so we were there into closing time and felt terr
I have been coming to Community Tavern for years. Pete has taken care of us several times. Amazing food, service, and atmosphere!
We'll be back real soon for the Bibimbap!
Modern place especially for the area.
Service was super nice, many attentive people.
The kim chi cheese fries were a big portion and the melty cheese was tasty.
Burger was rich and cheesy. Skinny fries with that were gucci.
The coconut cake was the reason I came. It could have been a little more mos
Always wanted to try this place after the rave about the burger. It was very good but not the best I’ve ever had. Still delicious though. The green papaya salad was also very good. Very flavorful. Love the vibe of the place. Great service.
Great ambiance and Asian fusion fare. Music playlist is on point 👌🏼
Mushroom butter dumplings are to die for! I had my best friend come with me before her surgery. Explosion of flavor in your mouth. The crispy bottom and tender top really made this experience enjoyable. A must try! Now, the oysters from Canada can’t be bet. This is the best restaurant in Chicago! I
